Stand with your feet shoulder width apart. You can place your hands behind your head or out in front of you. This will be your starting position.

Begin the movement by flexing your knees and hips, sitting back with your hips.

Continue down to full depth if you are and quickly reverse the motion until you return to the starting position. 

Keep your head and chest up and push your knees out.

Warmup Bodyweight Squat

Begin by adjusting the equipment to fit your body. 

Place your feet against the footplate in between the rollers as you lie facedown. Your knees should be just behind the pad. 

Start from the bottom of the movement. Keep your back arched as you begin the movement by flexing the knees. 

Drive your toes into the foot plate as you do so. Keep your upper body straight, and continue until your body is upright. 

Return to the starting position, keeping your descent under control.

Lift your right or left leg (whichever leg you prefer to start on first. I start with my weaker leg first) and place it on the bench behind you. 

Your feet should still be about shoulder width apart and the forward foot should be far enough in front where you can lunge comfortably. It may take a few foot movements to find where the perfect spot is.. that’s completely fine. You’ll get it down.

Keep those abs tight, lunge down on your forward leg while keeping your back foot stable to the bench. 

Stop lunging when your leg is parallel to the ground or below. 

Hold it there for a second then drive through your heel to stand back up in start position. REPEAT for recommended amount of reps!!

Bulgarian Split Squats

Stand with your feet hip-distance apart with a slight bend in your knees, a barbell placed in front of you.

Hinge forward at the hips, keeping your spine long and straight as your torso reaches toward the floor.

Grip the barbell with both hands at shoulder-distance apart, plugging your shoulders back and down to secure your spine and brace your core. 

Look down and slightly forward to align your neck with the rest of your back and avoid hyperextension.

Tighten your glutes, hamstrings and core and drive your feet into the ground to stand up straight, lifting the weight to about your upper thighs.

Squeeze your glutes and lock out your hips at the top.

Repeat the movement by lowering the weight somewhere between your knees and toes (depending on your flexibility), torso parallel to the ground while maintaining a flat back, slight bend in the knees, and core engaged.

Repeat for the prescribed amount of reps!

Barbell RDLs

Lie face down on the leg curl machine, stretching your legs out fully. 

The roller pad should rest a few inches over your calves, just above the heels. 

Grasp the support handles on the side of the machine. 

Flex your knees, pulling your ankles as close to your glutes as you can and squeeze. 

Return your feet to the starting position in a slow and controlled movement and repeat for the prescribed amount of reps.
